    How do you determine the right pitch prop? I have a triton 1756 with a 75 merc.
    on it with a jack plate. It will run 38mph. Is that about right?

    Steelin you definitely need more pitch. Just remember that the more top end you get the less low end hole shot you have.

    I have a 1754 with a 50 and my best friend has the 16 I can run just a hair faster than him! 38mph on gps! I had a 70 on it and it was some what faster but the lighter 50 makes it handle and fish better because the 70 made it draft a bunch more when at idle or sitting still but they both run real well so if you can, try both and see what you prefer! Dont know where you are located but I live in M.I. and would be happy to let you run mine
